Hardware Structure of Features for Digital Up-Conversion
The M8121A provides a direct mode, which allows sending sample data
directly to the output of the instrument. Additionally, it provides
mechanisms to do IQ modulation internally (highlighted in blue in
on page 68). This includes the interpolation of IQ sample pairs from a
low input data rate to the sampling rate of the instrument, the generation
of a carrier frequency by a Numerically Controlled Oscillator (NCO) and the
IQ modulation itself.
Direct Mode
In direct mode, the samples are sent directly to the DAC. IQ modulation
can be implemented by:
• Using two channels providing I and Q data separately to an external
analog IQ modulator. This setup is expensive and causes analog
distortions.
• IQ modulation can be done by software to generate the samples for an
IQ modulated signal.
